No Fear [Kindle Edition] - Allie Harrison (Author)
Welcome to Medusa’s Island . . . a vacation paradise complete with beautiful beaches and the quaint town of Medusa. But the island’s serenity is shattered when two young women are found dead from no apparent causes despite their expressions of terror. Chief of Police James Winchester and Emma Gray fear a monster from the past has returned to make Medusa its feeding ground. With passion flaring between them and a storm isolating the island, Emma and James have no choice but to again face the horror of a killer who exploits the deepest fears of his victims.
When James and Emma discover that Emma is destined to be the next victim, will the love they share be strong enough to save them? Or will the monster finally finish what he started five years before?
You know what it's like when you finish a good book and you immediately want to call your best friend and tell her all about it? But you can't because you know she'll like it too, and you don't want to give away the best parts. That's the feeling I had while reading No Fear by Allie Harrison.
Adept at creating a mood, Harrison gets the hair raising on the back of your neck as she spins her tail of the creepy things happening on Medusa's Island. After the mysterious deaths of two young women, Chief of Police James Winchester begins to fear that the monster, possibly a vampire, that stalked the Island 5 years ago has returned. This stirs his protective nature for the woman who survived an attack back then.
Emma Gray has never been the same since her brush with death. She lives a sheltered life, afraid of the night, avoiding all but the closest of friends, haunted by the voice of her attacker. Though she knows James and should trust him, she is wary of even him if it means venturing out after dark.
Can she trust James to protect her? Should she?
Like a trusted friend leading you into a dark place you're not sure you want to go, Harrison takes you down unexpected pathways in this clever vampire tale. As James and Emma join forces to catch monster, tensions, both sensual and fear heighten. Harrison knows how to bring the goosebumps and when to make you squirm. Just like Emma, you'll want to trust James when maybe you shouldn't.
No Fear is a chilling mix of mood, mystery and suspense. I'd tell you more but I don't want to spoil it. You have to read it for yourself.
